Leader: Hema Patel, Montreal, PQ, Canada; Co-leader: Saleem
Razack
Target Audience: Trainees,
fellows, and junior faculty.
Who needs more time? In this

issue, not actually a time issue. Improving the efficiency of
your available time will improve your productivity. Practical
tips on time management will be discussed in this workshop.
Using interactive techniques, participants will learn about
the theories of time management and develop specific tools to:
organize the day (calendar/agenda basics), run a meeting

overload and frequent interruptions). Strategies to minimize
procrastination will be discussed. We will borrow tried and
true principles from the business world and demonstrate some
everyday applications for busy academic pediatricians.

knowledge needed to manage time effectively
– To describe specific strategies (tools) for optimal time
utilization

will be essential in this workshop. Participants will do
self-assessment quizzes, small group problem-solving and have
a chance to try out suggested strategies (e.g., prioritizing)
for time management. Multiple interactive techniques will be

Recruiting & Staffing
Pediatric Emergency Departments in 2006
This session will explore the very timely issues related to
recruiting and staffing a pediatric emergency department (PED)
in 2006. Using a diversified panel of experts this two-part
discussion will explore first the issues related to recruiting

“graduated” resident responsibility, mid-level providers,
private versus teaching institutions, financial expectations
and the current state of the job market. Panelists include
graduating fellows, mid-level providers, fellowship program
directors, PEM division chiefs and directors of academic,

4100—Making Pediatrics Family Friendly
PAS/APPD Topic Symposium
Room 2003-2007, Moscone West
Chairs: Carol D. Berkowitz, Harbor-UCLA Medical Center,
Torrance, CA; and Richard E. Behrman, Federation of Pediatric
Organizations, Inc., Menlo Park, CA
Target Audience: Pediatric
clerkship directors, residency program directors, fellowship
directors and division chiefs and department chairs, as well
as those in training or faculty interested in a
family-friendly environment.
The Federation of Pediatric
Organizations (FOPO) released its Report of the Task Force on
Women in Pediatrics in April 2005. The report recommends
structural and functional changes in academic pediatrics so
that family balance is possible during all stages of training.
Specific steps to achieve this goal were outlined from medical
student training up through senior pediatric faculty. It has
been proposed that information should be collected from
medical schools and training programs so that they can be
rated as “family-friendly” in a manner analogous to
Fortune 500 companies. Issues related to a family-friendly
environment include flexible training and work schedules;
provision of sufficient leave for maternity/paternity and
eldercare; resources for childcare, after-school and lactation
facilities; and extension of timelines for tenure and
extramural funding.

PAS Educational Workshop
Yerba Buena Gardens Salon 2, SF Marriott
Leader: Christiane Corriveau, Washington, DC; Co-leaders: Ira
Cohen, Karen Smith
Target Audience: Junior and

Effective leadership is essential
to facilitating the transformation of the health care team in

participants will identify effective leadership behaviors,
qualities, and skills. Through interactive exercises and
reflective inquiry, participants will explore personal
leadership qualities and skills needed for professional
development and growth.
Objectives:
– To better understand the
complex nature of leadership and its importance in the
delivery of health care today
– To define leadership as a process
– To familiarize the learner with common leadership theories
– To better understand and reflect on one's personal
leadership behaviors through a series of interactive exercises
